It's that time of year again!  We are now accepting artwork for our statewide art competition sponsored by the J.A. and H.G. Woodruff, Jr. Charitable Trust.  If you're a Georgia student in the 9th grade or above, including both full and part-time college students, we want to see your artwork.

The artist with the first place winning piece will be awarded $1,000.  There will also be second and third place awards of $500 and $250, respectively, as well as certificates of merit. 

Winning artwork will also be used to create items such as T-shirts, stationary, and totes, to be sold in the Garden's gift shop, therefore pieces should follow guidelines closely.  Artwork must be two-dimensional in square, horizontal, round, oval, or vertical format and be within 24" x 36".  Pencil, pen and ink, photography, collage and computer enhanced graphics are all welcomed.  Please remember to sign your artwork.
For more guideline information and the entry form visit  http://botgarden.uga.edu/docs/visit/artcomp.pdf#.

Submissions will be taken at the lower level of the Callaway Building at the Gardens or mailed to Connie Cottingham at 2450 South Milledge Avenue, Athens, GA, 30605.

Deadline for submissions is November 30, 2012, at 3 p.m.
